Administrators, teachers and students are back to school for the start of the new school year. While getting to know new students, it is important to note that September is National Food Safety Awareness Month. An important component of food safety is being aware of food allergies and how to handle allergic reactions. Reactions can range from mild to severe and may lead to potentially-fatal Anaphylaxis, possibly resulting in breathing difficulties, a drop in blood pressure, or shock. Having a staff that knows how to act in these situations could help save a student’s life.
With PublicSchoolWORKS’ Managing Food Allergies course, educators will learn how to recognize the symptoms of an allergic reaction and provide treatment and ways to reduce the risk of student exposure to food allergens. To find out more about this course, or about how you can ensure your staff is prepared to deal with food safety, email sales@publicschoolworks.com.
